John Wesley was an Anglican cleric and theologian.  He founded Methodism with his brother Charles and a fellow cleric named George Whitefield.

 

“Do all the good you can. By all the means you can. In all the ways you can. In all the places you can. At all the times you can. To all the people you can. As long as ever you can.”    

-John Wesley

 

 

The first Methodist meetings in Fairfield were led by circuit rider, Jesse Herbert in 1940.  The first church was built in 1848 on the Southeast corner of B and Washington streets.

After a congregational split which lasted seven years, a new building was constructed at 201 North Court Street.  That structure was replaced by the current building and dedicated April 13, 1924.
